SITEASS
Newcastle's coat of arms includes two seahorses holding the shield. Their appearance is described heraldically as 'proper, crined and finned or' (in natural colours, with gold manes, fines and tails). In the Civic Centre there are abundant seahorses in wood, glass, metal and tapestry. In the Grand Stair Hall there is an 11 tier crystal chandelier with four crystal seahorses at its lowest point. The East Staircase has a pendant light with a double ring of metal seahorses and tiny versions of the city's shield. The most famous seahorses are those on top of the carillon tower. These bronze seahorses heads were designed by John Robert Murray McCheyne, Master of Sculpture at Newcastle University {Lynn Pearson 2006}. A new town hall was planned at Barras Bridge in 1939, but then war broke out {McCombie 2009, p. 34}.

The Civic Centre is an important public building of the period; the quality of materials and craftsmanship is extremely high and the building contains numerous works of art of high quality. Main alterations 1968-1996 Block 1: Waiting area enlarged, disabled access ramp added to registrar's offices and staircase from Sandyford Road entrance removed. Block 2: Disabled access ramp to Rates Hall entrance, security delievery compound inserted LG floor and council tax suite created. Block 3: canteen re-located from penthouse to LG floor, porch added to entrance at SW corner of car park and decorative lift doors in west tower replaced. Block 4: Ornamental water feature covered by rockery and disabled access ramp to courtyard. The Civic Centre is the primary evidence of the region trying to revive itself in the post-war period. It is important as a complete assemblage representative of development at civic authorities post Second World War. It has high architectural and group value with high quality materials and craftsmanship. It has high historical value as narratives of the development of national and local government and emerging civic identity and social value as an expression ot the re-emergence of the city region from the depression and unemployment of the 1930s.

A photographic record of internal and limited external spaces was undertaken in 2018 prior to the proposed refurbishments of Blocks 1, 2 and 4 of Newcastle Civic Centre.
